Which MOT specialities are covered?

The verified routes here are Mental Health, Neurosciences, Paediatrics and Hand Rehabilitation. The college admissions page styles Paediatrics as Paediatrics & Neonatology and Hand Rehabilitation as Hand. Select the exact specialty in the written offer; other SIMATS courses have their own admission rules.

What is the current MOT marks requirement?

The current college admission page requires a BOT degree or equivalent from a recognised university with at least 60% aggregate. The linked regulations also require a qualifying full-time BOT programme and six months of compulsory internship. External-university qualifications need SIMATS eligibility certification.

How long is MOT and what is the study mode?

The linked regulations specify two continuous years on a full-time basis. The four-year maximum period to pass examinations is a completion limit, not the normal course duration. Academic courses, supervised clinical work and a specialty dissertation form part of the degree.

Is the MOT teaching medium English?

Yes. The college-linked regulations, applicable from academic year 2023–24, explicitly state English as the medium of instruction and evaluation for all MOT courses. Any certificate needed for overseas study or professional registration has separate requirements.

The college’s recorded new BOT/MOT batch induction took place on 7 August 2024. It currently advertises 2026–27 admissions, but that does not provide a current joining date. Ask for the joining notice for your intended cohort before arranging travel.

What tuition and other fees are published?

The undated central table lists annual tuition INR 65,000 and laboratory fee INR 100,000 for Indian/SAARC applicants, totalling INR 165,000. These reference figures are not a confirmed quote for a named academic year. Request current tuition, laboratory charges and any additional costs in writing.

Does the overseas column show a separate fee?

Yes. The same undated table lists NRI/foreign annual tuition USD 1,000 and lab fee USD 1,500, totalling USD 2,500, for its named overseas categories. It does not establish a named academic year, degree-equivalence approval, visa eligibility or an automatic offer.

Which documents are needed for the eligibility certificate?

The linked MOT regulations list the BOT degree or provisional certificate, all qualifying university marksheets, internship completion certificate and migration certificate. Graduates of another university need SIMATS’s eligibility certificate before the stated admission deadline.

Is campus logistics accommodation guaranteed?

The college publishes separate men’s and women’s campus campus logistics with shared rooms, common bathrooms and utilities. The reviewed page does not establish a guaranteed room allocation or current price. Confirm room availability, meal arrangements arrangements and the total housing bill separately.

What does clinical training involve?

The regulations describe supervised clinical postings, rounds, case demonstrations, research-related work and a work diary. Specialty clinical study and dissertation requirements form part of the two-year degree. No particular employment or overseas practice outcome is guaranteed.

What institutional recognition is verified?

UGC’s own register lists SIMATS as a deemed university under Section 3. NAAC’s own valid-accreditation register dated 14 August 2025 lists cycle 2, A++, CGPA 3.66, declared 28 June 2022. These institutional statuses do not replace another country’s professional-registration assessment.

Are other Saveetha institutions the same university?

Use the exact institution and campus on your offer. These MOT routes are at Saveetha College of Occupational Therapy within SIMATS, Thandalam. Saveetha Engineering College and Saveetha Amaravati University are distinct institutions and cannot supply admission dates or regulations for these programmes.
